Big questions over Apple's AI software

Apple, a company known for its longstanding commitment to user privacy, has received flak since unveiling its artificial intelligence (AI) strategy at its Worldwide Developers Conference on June 10.

This relates to the centrepiece of Apple Intelligence, which gives users access to OpenAI’s powerful generative AI tool, ChatGPT.

No questions, Apple has always taken our privacy seriously and will continue to do so. I gladly give my data to Apple, and only Apple.

Lawmakers across the globe should intervene and limit these types of new technology. The new generation are way too focused on nonsense like privacy and should not see, experience of have access to this technology.

Makes me feel a bit like Jason Bourne when he snaps his burner phone in half and tosses it in the trash.

That's how the new generation works. Everyone needs to adapt.

I haven’t been able to read … but I’m guessing the best / most secure / reliable / consistent / well thought out / fastest?

Apple is the only company I trust with privacy.

There are no big questions, only idiots who can’t understand the most basic of explanations.

Tiftfy. Can’t exclude yourself. You harping on and on and on about the layout of photos is invaluable.

Let Tim Cook

Last week, Apple announced “Apple Intelligence,” a suite of features coming to iOS 18 (the next version of the iPhone’s software) in a presentation that FastCompany called “uninspired,” Futurism called “boring,” and Axios claimed “failed to excite investors.” The presentation, given at Apple’s...

No way - I think I’m there.

I can argue that anything I have is the best and the company made the best choice ever.

So my QLED TV? They didn’t *want* to have the deep blacks of an OLED because it crushes the detail. So they purposely chose to elevate the black levels. It was intentional and brilliant choice from the best company in the world. The TV also has a slight blue tinge that people think is a negative - but it was a brilliant and thoughtful decision because studies show that everyone’s eyes are slightly different. Thus Samsung intentionally elected and its just far ahead of the curve.

Samsung also only did OLED now because the market wasn’t ready yet. Samsung don’t do things first - but they do it properly. Brilliant design! Brilliant timing! Perfect & amazing!


(How was that as applying the Apple concept to other products?)
